battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

Me included, I'd support such a system

[indigo hazel]

I’m not gonna pay 30-50 bucks yearly for that shit

[arctic grove]

EA are masters of backing out on promises

lol

If it's your favourite game you regularly play, why not?

[indigo hazel]

Because It will split the community just like BF1

You may get years of content, but at what cost to the player base?

[arctic grove]

battlepass also splits community

what happens when the game is older and new players come in later, they get way less rewards and XP making most of the game a lot less enjoyable

[indigo hazel]

Maybe a rainbow six styled year pass like they used to do, except specialists instead of operators, but I just don’t think it’d work the same.

[arctic grove]

No, it won't. If you make previous expansions free for all users, it won't. Only newer passes are gonna be sold separately

Exactly like it is in WoW

[next onyx]

I'd rather the free content

Even if you can pay for it, Not exactly the point.

[indigo hazel]

Then the premium players are playing the new things, while the free players are playing the older content, it splits it

[arctic grove]

but with terrible made skins that are taking half of your hard drive space?

[next onyx]

Not everyone will be able to play the maps and thats an even worse use of space

[arctic grove]

Im convinced the MW devs don't know how to compress file size

[indigo hazel]

Not everyone has your bank account.

[arctic grove]

They will, once a new expansion arrives

[next onyx]

If you make the new maps free and make it part of the experience, They can be part of the normal playlists and work like that.

[indigo hazel]

Not everyone can pay yearly.

[arctic grove]

I don't have a huge bank account xD

[next onyx]

Even so man, I remember when it was easy to find a final stand server, Now i can't.

[arctic grove]

"One gun skin and some slight patches" 780 gb

[arctic grove]

People buy different games yearly, some people play only one game that they fuckin love so much they'd marry it

😂

[indigo hazel]

Summed out, the premium yearly would split the community just like the DLC in BF1, it’d ruin the community.

[next onyx]

The premium oute had its perks

and it was great for its timing

I loved how we got almost half a dozen maps with lots of gun per release

[arctic grove]

Both premium and battlepass systems have major drawbacks

[next onyx]

EXACTLY

If the pacific theatre was locked behind a pay wall, It would have died off

Not quickly

But in the future if you ever went back it'll be extremely difficult

[indigo hazel]

Yea, if it became free, then the premium payers got the content, it’s a never ending cycle.

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 Gameplay Trailer: https://youtu.be/WomAGoEh-Ss
Time: <t:1626973200:R>

[arctic grove]

Ever since Bad Company, or around that time, new Battlefield games were released 2 years apart. People were buying that, so I see no problem with people buying yearly passes for one Battlefield game that has several themes fit into one foundation

[sonic cave]

oh ok I get it I just don't have rights

[indigo hazel]

When beta

Oh

[arctic grove]

When sys reqs, I wanna see 660ti as minimum GPU

[indigo hazel]

2042 should be optimized

[arctic grove]

oh funny, same thing happened to my dad except it was cigarettes

[indigo hazel]

@storm roost Beta When

[naive trellis]

Just wait and find out?

[indigo hazel]

No

Can’t

[arctic grove]

You cant just wait, the pre orders are up

Ppl can buy the thing, but they don't even know if they can run it

Not cool

[royal trail]

agreed

[indigo hazel]

That’s their fault lol

[royal trail]

im going to wait for requirements and beta, if it pans out ima preorder gold

[arctic grove]

Wilde, give us some ideas so we can speculate for fun

[indigo hazel]

Don’t do something if you don’t have info

[naive trellis]

You realise that any company releases specs before the game is out, right?

[indigo hazel]

Also people don’t get you can just cancel pre order

[arctic grove]

Course, but you can spend your money now, before it's out

[naive trellis]

It's not like anyone is forcing you to.

[indigo hazel]

I don’t think they even charge you until like a week before release

[sonic cave]

Wait what exactly are they showing off at ea play for battlefield??

[royal trail]

anime skins for the game

[opal compass]

the remastered maps

[arctic grove]

Nope, but it is there

[indigo hazel]

It’s called self control

[arctic grove]

You don't have to tell me, I'm good

[naive trellis]

The reason I didn't pay x3 for a 3090

[arctic grove]

Waiting for Beta, like many others

[indigo hazel]

Based

[lost arrow]

Is it true that there will be a free to play mode? Just heard about that short time ago, is this true or just an unconfirmed leak?

[royal trail]

leak

[crimson wasp]

there hasn't been any confirmations of the new gamemode

[arctic grove]

leak and most likely not true but who knows

[crimson wasp]

all that has been revealed is that there will be a new gamemode

[indigo hazel]

It’s a BR but it’s not at the same time lol

[lost arrow]

ah okey, was wondering because they said one of the 3 will be free but okey then.

[indigo hazel]

Don’t think they did lol

[lost arrow]

i also dont think so but i just heard that before so was wondering

[sonic cave]

im honestly more excited for the redacted game mode

[indigo hazel]

Most likely a leak, and always take 12 pounds of salt

[indigo hazel]

Yea, the classic maps will be interesting, fun to see what they’ll do with em

[lost arrow]

i hope you can pet the penguins. else i will equip c4 next time after deploying >:D

[indigo hazel]

I’m more interested in putting a TUGS on one

[arctic grove]

Is anybody really worried about cheaters in BF2042?

[lost arrow]

lol, thats also a good idea

[indigo hazel]

Console wise, no.

[lost arrow]

the problem is, this battlefield will be the first one i will play on pc instead on console. i dont know how bad the cheater problem really was before

[indigo hazel]

As cross-play to PC can be disabled.

[arctic grove]

thank god

nah jk I want ez console kills

lol

[arctic grove]

somehow It was only noticable on BF1 and 5

And there is this new cheat for consoles too

[lost arrow]

yea ok, but bf5 didnt even had any support around it. it just exists

[arctic grove]

Crossplay between all platforms is great, can't argue bout that

First time in the series, right?

[next tree]

I'm sute

[lost arrow]

but you need to know ps4 and xbox x will be crossplay between each and new generation consoles with pc will be crossplay between each

so no ps4 to pc

[arctic grove]

Yep, saw that. It's a necessary evil

[lost arrow]

i mean i get it why, but its still sad for some people maybe playing on older consoles

but for sure the hardware of those consoles is so old now, it doesnt make sence to crossplay with pc or new gen consoles

[arctic grove]

I hope that the old gen versions will have an identical feature set as the next gen

Cut a few corners off the huge maps, reduce player limit, but that's it

Leave everything else the same

[indigo hazel]

They already confirmed nothing changing except map size and player count.

[arctic grove]

Alright, cool then

[lost arrow]

so far i know map size, player size and graphics are the only thing that gets cut down. tornado etc. are also on old gen

[indigo hazel]

I would like to know the FPS last gen will get though.

Hopefully 60

[lost arrow]

i doubt that

[pine roost]

Does last gen reach 60 in many games?

[arctic grove]

900p 60fps will be good, 1080p even better

[indigo hazel]

Yea

[lost arrow]

i mean xbox maybe, but ps4 will definately not reach native 60. in bf5 it didnt reached 60 all the time

[pine roost]

Well 60 fps 1080p could be possible

In that case

[indigo hazel]

One S, One X, PS Pro should reach 60

[azure lodge]

Battlefield 2042 Gameplay Trailer: https://youtu.be/WomAGoEh-Ss
Time: <t:1626973200:R>

[indigo hazel]

I don’t get why people play games higher then 1080p anyway lol

[lost arrow]

they will probably reach 120 with performance mode

[indigo hazel]

Def not

[lost arrow]

bigger screens maybe.

[indigo hazel]

Last gen won’t get close to 120

[lost arrow]

i mean the new gen consoles

[indigo hazel]

For sure

[lost arrow]

last gen cant get more then 60 because its caped

[arctic grove]

I'd like to see what's the 4K buzz is all about some day, but I'm also not sure why this resolution rush is happening

[indigo hazel]

I’d guess Quality is capped at 60-80, and performance is 100-120

[pine roost]

Do the new consoles have DLSS?

[arctic grove]

It eats so much VRAM and power in general

[indigo hazel]

Microsoft is developing a DLSS console alternative, but not out for a few years minimum

[lost arrow]

i dont think you can enable this or if this feature exists, but its maybe possible. but i think the consoles use amd gpus if i am correct, and dlss is an nvidia feature

[pine roost]

DLSS would be so good for consoles

[indigo hazel]

I love how 1080p looks. Maybe I’ll get a 1440p 120hz monitor sometime, but I’m more then fine with 1080

[arctic grove]

1080p

ah yeah

the blurry mess

looks great

[indigo hazel]

Wtf are you on about lol

[arctic grove]

Yeah, 1080 is great. Things are sharp, clear to see

[arctic grove]

I have used 1080p for years

in modern games especially with TAA

it is no longer enough

Nah nah nah, don't blame the resolution for that

[indigo hazel]

For your superior gamer boomer eyes I guess, more then enough for me

[arctic grove]

It's TAA

Blame the ubiquitous usage of that AA method

[arctic grove]

TAA looks better on higher resolutions, and apparently TAA is all devs want to use now

so

[pine roost]

I don’t look how taa looked on my 1050p monitor

[arctic grove]

It does look better on higher resolutions, but what's the point of it then?

[indigo hazel]

Wut

[pine roost]

But I can play 1440p native and it looks so much better

[lost arrow]

resolution depens on your display size. if you have a smaller display 1080p is enough, if you have a wider screen then for sure you should upgrade to wqhd or 4k

i wouldnt count 1080p bad or blurry as it depens on your screen size

[indigo hazel]

Who wants to play on a 30-40 inch screen lol

Too big for me

[lost arrow]

for me 24 is enough

[indigo hazel]

I play amazing with just a 20 inch

24 is the best for sure

[arctic grove]

I play on a 24 inch 1080p monitor rn and pretty much every modern game has a noticeable blur, but to be fair, I have very good eyesight so it might just be a me problem

[royal trail]

i tried playing bf3 to ps3 on a 42" 1080p tv back in the days and it was okey, with the slow response everyone had with controllers and all

[arctic grove]

either way I'm upgrading to 1440

[indigo hazel]

You sure motion Blur isn’t just on lol

[arctic grove]

Yeah I'm really not that stupid

[indigo hazel]

My eyes aren’t picky, so I don’t care about these so called 1080p flaws lol

[deep heart]

IM GETTING HYPEd

[arctic grove]

What games do you play that have annoying blur?

[indigo hazel]

1440 is the best if you ever really care about the screen I guess

[arctic grove]

and that's totally fine, I am so the flaws bother me a lot more

[lost arrow]

watch some bf5 and infinite warfare trailers and hacker compilations. then you are fine again

[deep heart]

XDdd

[indigo hazel]

Wish I had money for this 1440 120hz monitor for 200$, that was a steal

[arctic grove]

Fallen Order, Cyberpunk (not as bad as the others), RDR2, BFV, Mafia Definitive Edition

[lost arrow]

and the trailer of steve the bfv elite to punch your monitor

[arctic grove]

etc

[lost arrow]

minecraft with shaders

[arctic grove]

Yeah, all of those have terrible TAA implementation. Especially CP and RDR2 with it's aquarelle trees

when you just found out the beta has been delayed

[lost arrow]

worst part is, on console you cant deactivate those

[haughty cipher]

Cross play between different platforms is right decision?

[arctic grove]

Well still, I know for a fact resolution helps, plus you can get really good IPS 1440p monitors for only 350 bucks

so to me its worth it

[pine roost]

Beta hasn’t been delayed, just the technical playtest

[arctic grove]

100%

[indigo hazel]

They atleast said later summer so maybe August

But yea

They said the Tech test

So real Beta may not have even been moved

[arctic grove]

Thing is with TAA is that it affects not just the edges of geometry, but textures as well. Meaning, increasing resolution doesn't fix the blur, but merely makes it more bearable

[lost arrow]

is there a difference between ips and oled displays? i mean a difference you can actually see

[crimson minnow]

How hard is renezook?

[haughty cipher]

.

[arctic grove]

Shit, pretty hard actually. Tried it a few times, never pulled it off

[indigo hazel]

Sure, especially since they said it’s optional.

No downside at all

[lost arrow]

The hardest part is actually getting a plane or not getting missle locked lol

[pine roost]

I really need to work on my aim before 2042

[royal trail]

sure it wont be like covid vaccine optional? like, you must not take it but if you dont you will not be able to take part in anything

[arctic grove]

Yeah so I don't know why dev's continue on insisting to use it

honestly

[haughty cipher]

But consoles players they like to play with pc players

[indigo hazel]

Huh

[arctic grove]

It's cause it's cheap as hell, just like FXAA, but much more efficient than that. Almost doesn't affect performance

[lost arrow]

i dont think so. i think more of the opposite

[indigo hazel]

If they want to they can

If they don’t want to they don’t have to

Simple

Not confusing at all, literally yes or no

[arctic grove]

Well still, I would rather just play at a high res and have good image quality while also not loosing that much performance

on RDR2 TAA looks great at 1440p

[lost arrow]

jup, but i mean. it was obvious that you can dissable crossplay if you want to

[arctic grove]

What GPU are you using?

[dusty spindle]

crossplay is autistic

[arctic grove]

Not RDR related, just asking

[arctic grove]

2080ti

[dusty spindle]

console players are getting rekt then

[arctic grove]

Ah, Nvidia. Not sure if they have an alternative to AMD's adaptive sharpening, but that thing is pretty good

[arctic grove]

Don't like using sharpening

It makes the ghosting more apparent

[lost arrow]

Maybe you can use mouse and keyboard, i mean you can already do that on console with the new CODs. For sure you have a higher input lag then on pc, but this would be still a thing if you decide playing crossplay

[dusty spindle]

blenderman is typing the bible i guess

a nvm

[sterile pelican]

https://tenor.com/view/charge-attack-battlefield-battlefield1-attack-charge-gif-7279044

[arctic grove]

I don't like it either, but AMD's solution is rather rad. It only applies the effect to areas that actually need it

[sterile pelican]

Patataj

[lost arrow]

i am just multitasking rn, so i stop writing sometimes

[arctic grove]

It's biggest downside is that it's driver based, so it applies after the frame is rendered, affecting UI as well

[dusty spindle]

who said men cant multitasking, we have evidence right here right now

[royal trail]

are you calling me a potato? c'mon bruh

[arctic grove]

hm, yeah as I said I would rather just get the best looking most natural image with the least amount of performance loss, so 1440p is the way to go, I need a new monitor anyway

the one I have isnt even IPS

1080p is pretty underpowered for my setup anyway

kind of a waste

Yeah, you should probably up your res with 2080

[proven torrent]

https://tenor.com/view/charge-attack-battlefield-battlefield1-attack-charge-gif-7279044

[pine roost]

Doesn’t the ps5 graphics card perform about the same as a 2080? Thought I read that somewhere

[arctic grove]

Although, that card will last you even longer if you dont

[somber nebula]

Consoles use apu graphics

[proven torrent]

wat!!!? no way

[somber nebula]

And they arent even near a 2080 level

[pine roost]

It was only a quick google search tho, not sure how accurate that is

[arctic grove]

^

[pine roost]

2060 then?

[arctic grove]

2070 super

just googled it

[pine roost]

In that case we could expect recommended specs for pc to be 2070 super surely?

[arctic grove]

nah

doubt it

[somber nebula]

Doubt that

[arctic grove]

seems high

like

way high

[somber nebula]

Way too high

No point to release a game only a few on the planet can play

[pine roost]

It seems logical though

[arctic grove]

Probably will be 1080, maybe 1080ti

[somber nebula]

Consoles are specifically made for gaming keep that in mind

[pine roost]

Minimum maybe, but it depends what the consoles can reach

[open patrol]

U need to add chaos of 128 people playing in all that.. 🙂

[somber nebula]

Pcs are a do everything

[pine roost]

Is 1080p 120fps reasonable for next gen consoles?

[arctic grove]

probably

yeah

Consoles are aiming for 4K, so it is going to be different for PC

checkerboard 4k

[somber nebula]

4k is just for marketing

[arctic grove]

but 4K nonetheless

[somber nebula]

Minimum im gonna guess is around 1060 6gb area

[arctic grove]

checkerboard 4K still uses more power than native 1080p

[fathom maple]

beta when

[dim blade]

6 days til EA play!!

[pine roost]

That’ll run like 30 fps

[somber nebula]

And how would you know

[arctic grove]

It better be somewhere in the middle if not in recommended

I don't get why people believe this game is going to be harder to run than RDR2

Look at Steam statistics, so many people are still running those cards

it makes no sense

[somber nebula]

1060s sold massive numbers for a few years

It was the goto card for that era

1070 was the best price to performance

[pine roost]

Yeah but this is a next gen game. Can’t garantee it will run on old hardware

[arctic grove]

its running on old gen

[somber nebula]

Pc will get 128 players no matter what

[pine roost]

The point of the game is that it makes use of next gen hardware. As they’ve mentioned numerous times, not design it with old hardware in mind

[fathom maple]

game will be unplayable without internet

[arctic grove]

That where the magic of PC comes in, where you can tweak games so they will run on potatoes

[open patrol]

point it to optimize it so it can run on old hardwares too, since u need to sell those units to get money..

[lost arrow]

welcome back config files. changing graphics to look like fortnite

[arctic grove]

Fortnite looks pretty good actually

[pine roost]

Either way I have a 3080 so I’m not concerned bout performance 😎

[arctic grove]

Tasty, like a cherry gum

[lost arrow]

yea didnt said its bad, but less performance taking the many other titles

but thats how it is meant to be. running on any hardware

[pine roost]

So it should run fine on a 960

[arctic grove]

It looks pretty, and it can be very demanding on the highest settings

[lost arrow]

i dont know about the 960 but i am sure the 980 or 980ti will run good. I think its a bit underrated gpu. its old yes but still has good power

[lost arrow]

yea for sure. dont worry, i am not roasting fortnite graphics

[royal trail]

980ti is basically a gtx1070 with 2gb less vram ,yes?

[arctic grove]

Just saying. I was quite surprised when I saw how slow it runs on top settings even on high spec machines

[arctic grove]

Yep

[lost arrow]

1070 is a bit better but they kinda similar to the performance

[pine roost]

I do hope that my friends can run it

[royal trail]

cool

[pine roost]

Or else what’s the point

[arctic grove]

780ti is also great, but suffers from lack of drivers support

[pine roost]

I’ve gone 3 years being unable to play games they play due to terrible specs, and now I finally have a good pc they might not be able to even play it

[arctic grove]

Look up some benchmarks for it, you'd be surprised

[lost arrow]

idk how the 780ti is. might look some benchmarks later

[arctic grove]

buy the 5090ti

only 24k

[lost arrow]

impressed that the 780ti can run many games at 60fps. watched some benchmarks

[spark acorn]

Its not gonna be good for da new one

[warped isle]

I still can't figure out how I managed to run Battlefield 5 on a GTX 750ti and a intel i3 2120

[lost arrow]

yea, that for sure. the architecture is too old

[lost arrow]

battlefield games are well optimized

[warped isle]

The Pc cost me as much as the game

[indigo hazel]

Never had Amazon prime, is Invincible pretty good?

[spark acorn]

Yes 100%

[indigo hazel]

Ok

D a d

[tame token]

They are going to talk about Apex Legends as well in EA Live event.

And also BF 2042.

xD

Where both games are headed in the future.

[tribal wyvern]

not battlefield 5

that's why he can't figure it out

battlefield 5 is not hte most unoptimized of the bunch sure

but still unoptimized

i'd say bf4's more optimized than bf5 is

[lost arrow]

so far i know bfv isnt bad optimized. it was bad at launch

[tribal wyvern]

but bf5 is more optimized than bf1 is

notice how bf1 has beefier requirements

[tribal wyvern]

well i heard it's badly optimized

i don't own the game on pc and have yet to find someone that cna buy it for me lol in a tough spot atm

i will eventually

it might even go free

who knows

[timid merlin]

its running at like 180-200 fps for me

on High

[tribal wyvern]

what's ur specs?

[timid merlin]

2080SUPER

10600k

[tribal wyvern]

bruh of course you run it at 200 fps

you got a fuckin i9-10600k

and an rtx card

[lost arrow]

it was bad at launch, but they fixed that a few month later

[timid merlin]

its an i5

XD

[plucky marten]

I get 110 on low settings - ryzen 5 2600x 1070ti

[tribal wyvern]

i5?????

[lost arrow]

not every game runs that well as bfv

[timid merlin]

i5 10600k

[tribal wyvern]

never heard of an i5 reaching that number

huh

[plucky marten]

Hoping for at least 90 on bf 2042

[timid merlin]

its one of the best 6 cores you can buy

[tribal wyvern]

oh it's a six core?

well i got a 4 core

[timid merlin]

before the 5600x, it was the best

[tribal wyvern]

in your dreams

game will prob be heavy as fuck

what's ur specs

[plucky marten]

Honestly

[magic elbow]

ikr

[plucky marten]

Specs

[tribal wyvern]

you'll get 60

but prob not 90

i got a ni5-2500k oc'ed to 4.2

wit ha 1070 ti

[timid merlin]

i hope i get likr 150

in bd 2042

[plucky marten]

Such a bad time for demanding games to release since most people can’t upgrade any time soon

[royal trail]

lemon, didnt you say that the game wouldnt require more than bfv on the gpu side, or was that someone else?

[lost arrow]

there are still good cards you can get for a reasonable price. If you dont stick to your 200fps

[warped isle]

I get 150-300 fps with my RX6700XT and Intel I7 9700K

the processor is overclocked tho

[glossy magnet]

I pray that my 4770k@4,4GHz and RTX 2080 get 60fps in 4k because I cap them anyway. It works in BFV no matter if RTX ON or OFF so I think I'm safe

[lost arrow]

why you need 4k? reduce res and play on higher refresh rate

[tribal wyvern]

someone else for sure

cuz i said the exact opposite

i said that it wouldn't require more than bf5 on the cpu side but require more than bf5 on the gpu side

[warped isle]

Maybe he has an 4k monitor without 120hz/144hz/165hz/240hz/360hz

[royal trail]

cool. my bad

[tribal wyvern]

i assumed this because a while back the specs requirements SUPPOSDELY leaked

and they were more or less the same as bf5 except a stronger gpu was needed

[lost arrow]

that would suck

[supple maple]

I think you should change your cpu.

[warped isle]

I also play on 4k 60hz

[lost arrow]

i mean i even use dlss for 1080p for most games if its useful

[tribal wyvern]

bf 2042 has to be more optimized than bf5 btw

[lost arrow]

reducing heat and power usage is main reason and i dont need more

[tribal wyvern]

if they're gonna have huge maps with a high player count it has to be more optimized than bf5

this is a given

and this is a new engine, so new engine might mean better optimization

[lost arrow]

i mean they also updated their engine. newer game engines prefer to be more optimized in general

[tribal wyvern]

and also don't forget that it most likely has very nice compatibility with windows 11, because windows 11 is VERY cpu optimized and works very well with dx12 games

so for anyone that's gonna get win 11 you get extra performance boost aswell

[glossy magnet]

back when I choose a new monitor I did choose resolution over Hz, because I didn't choose it for gaming only but more work and watching videos (youtube) + I got it for under 200€ at that time

[tribal wyvern]

plus nvidia reflex is in it, which helps in cpu bound cases

[lost arrow]

ok, thats reasonable. good deal you did for that price, wow

[lost arrow]

cant wait to test that out. wanna see the difference from ps4 to pc with that feature.

only played some story games on pc so far and already noticing the lower input lag. on ps4 its huge for some games

[slim quiver]

windows actually updated their reqs for windows 11

looks like its intel 8th gen and up and ryzen 2 and up

[tribal wyvern]

yeah uh

anyone tell you those reqs are bullshit?

cuz they are

you don't need tpm, secureboot or any of the cpu's on that compatibility list

a group of middle shcoolers developed a program (that's still in heavy development and being updated constantly) that allows you to bypass the compatibility checks and install win 11 officially

and it works just fine lmao

[hazy vector]

you don't even need W11 really xd

[tribal wyvern]

you sorta do

there's a huge performance increase

0.1 and 1% lows are higher, cpu usage is lower, fps is higher and overall a lot more stable for dx12 games

[hazy vector]

it's fuckin hidious tho

[tribal wyvern]

jonnypa tested win 11 on bf5 in dx12 and said he noticed a big improvement aswell

[tribal wyvern]

wha? i find it kinda nice

plus there's a shit ton of customization

i'm a fan of the frosted glass aesthetic

[hazy vector]

it's like aero but worse

[arctic grove]

2042

[torpid nova]

as u see im listening to i miss the rage AND I FELL LIKE I AM ASCENDING IM ABOVE UR LEVEL

[tribal wyvern]

it does not

[split parcel]

DICE would be shooting themselves in the foot if that were the case considering how many are still using the 1000 GTX series, and considering the recent graphics card shortage

[tribal wyvern]

cuz if it did it would not be economically doable

and a big chunk of pc players would not be able to play

[plucky marten]

Over 30% use 1060s no?

Steam has stats on it

[tribal wyvern]

remember the gpu shortage isn't over just yet

[torpid nova]

i have a gtx 1650 ti any thiughts???

[tribal wyvern]

and even without the shortage they're expensive to get

[torpid nova]

thoughts*

[floral knot]

I have i7 6700 and 24GB ram and a gtx 1060 6gb, can I play 1080p 60fps high settings or what?

[tribal wyvern]

requiring an rtx card to play the game would be very fucking stupid and would lose them a lot of money

[rugged forge]

1650 is an excellent budget card

[tribal wyvern]

we don't know bud

[somber nebula]

!!specs

[tribal wyvern]

we don't got the specs

[tender pendant]

Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for Battlefield 2042.
Any specs floating around the internet are just assumptions or rumors.

[plucky marten]

10%*

[tribal wyvern]

that ram is overkill

cpu seems fine

gpu is a little in between

[tribal wyvern]

i snagged a 1070 ti for 220 bucks

[plucky marten]

https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam

[rugged forge]

I found a 1660 for 150 used before pandemic pricing

[tribal wyvern]

ah shit you beat me on the price tag

BUT STILL

1070 ti for 220 is a hell of a fucking deal

[rugged forge]

It is

[tribal wyvern]

it's a triple fan model too

[rugged forge]

Cheapest card I ever bought was an old minners rx 570 grabbed it for 80 bucks

[tribal wyvern]

flight simulator with my setup should run at like 30 fps on amx settings

pretty fuckin impressive ngl

[rugged forge]

Sold it for twice as much during pandemic

Lmao

[plucky marten]

Max

[tribal wyvern]

max

[rugged forge]

My cpu is OLD tho I'm rocking an i7 2600k 16gb ddr3

[tribal wyvern]

you call that old?

[split parcel]

Really? My GTX 1080 still holds up

[tribal wyvern]

i got an i5-2500k with 16 gb ddr3

[rugged forge]

NICE

Respect

[tribal wyvern]

ddr3 ain't so bad if you got 16 gb

ngl

people shit on it a lot more than they should

[rugged forge]

In cpu heavy games we suffer. Lmao

Like squad or Arma breh

[arctic grove]

I have 64gb of ram

get on my lvl

[tribal wyvern]

squad and arma are unoptimized

even people with strong cpu's struggle on those games

[slim quiver]

1080 still holds yea

[rugged forge]

Even he'll let lose be making my cpu go STOP

Hell*

[tribal wyvern]

hell let loose runs at like 55-60 for me

[split parcel]

What do you mean how? What games are you playing that can't reach 60 FPS?

[tribal wyvern]

you gotta optimize the settings a bit

[rugged forge]

Are u oc'd?

[tribal wyvern]

yes

4.2 is max i can go

on a STOCK COOLER

pretty cool huh?

[arctic grove]

Hell Let Loose runs like

it's meh

it doesn't run

[slim quiver]

Hell let loose runs very poorly. I run it at like 110 FPS and the detail isn’t even all that good

[arctic grove]

it fuckin crawls

[tribal wyvern]

mate be glad!

half the fuckign community can't reach constant 60

[rugged forge]

Lmao

[split parcel]

What's WDL?

[arctic grove]

yeah that's the case with a lot of indie shooters sadly

[slim quiver]

Yeah but it’s more just like the power behind it

[rugged forge]

Meanwhile bf4 I'm 4k 100fps

[tribal wyvern]

yes it should run at a much much much MUCH higher fps

you got like an i9+rtx 3090 if i remember

[split parcel]

That's a ubisoft game. They aren't known for their optimization

[tribal wyvern]

on that setup it runs at less than 120

[slim quiver]

Compared to other games that have more graphical fidelity @arctic grove it’s pretty poorly optimized

[tribal wyvern]

like that's pure unoptimization

[rugged forge]

Ikr ac loves cpu power

[split parcel]

I'm playing BFV on Ultra and 1080p and reach 75 FPS at its lowest

[slim quiver]

I think I run BFV at It’s highest at like 130-150 fps

[rugged forge]

Try koth servers

Unless your cpu is a beast most Koth games are like 30fps max

Well for me anyway

[split parcel]

Star Citizen runs at 45-60 FPS too in 1080p

GTX 1080 is a beast of a card

[tribal wyvern]

now i know i don't like bf5

[rugged forge]

SC is a very hungry cpu boy

[tribal wyvern]

might be cuz i'm trash at it

or might be cuz it's trash itself

[arctic grove]

1080 was a very good card

[tribal wyvern]

or might be cuz i own it on console and i'm a pc guy when it comes ot battlefield

[arctic grove]

I remember it fondly

[tribal wyvern]

it's going for 7 bucks on eneba right now

should i buy it guys?

[rugged forge]

Yes

[split parcel]

Still is a good card. Gonna last me till the 4000 series

[tribal wyvern]

i mean it's gonna be a good benchmark

and i might even be good at it

like with bf1

when i got it on pc i fucking slayed

literally yesterday i got a QUAD

i'm a beast on pc with battlefield man

[rugged forge]

I like ether or sometimes I even us controller on PC if im feeling lazy

[split parcel]

8GB

[rugged forge]

8gb?

Thought so

[arctic grove]

TI version has 10gb

[rugged forge]

Well v ram only goes so far

[arctic grove]

yeah I'm gunna wait to upgrade until 4k series aswell

[split parcel]

11GB even

[arctic grove]

my pc is still plenty beefy enough

oh, 11

[rugged forge]

I hear xbox is dropping its gold subscription

That shit true?

[split parcel]

Maybe

[rugged forge]

Breh

[tribal wyvern]

i haven't played hell let loose for 4 fuckin days

and i still can't

cuz it's either all servers have a full queue

or my team does fuck all

and then it's not fun

[arctic grove]

refund it, play squad

[rugged forge]

Tru

[tribal wyvern]

too late to refund and own squad alreayd lmao

[arctic grove]

forgotten hope 2 then

[tribal wyvern]

and hell let loose is fun

when your team actually plays the fockin game

[rugged forge]

Obviously you should play enlisted

:/

[tribal wyvern]

tried it

sucks

[rugged forge]

Ik

[tribal wyvern]

at least for me

[arctic grove]

Enlisted isn't good enough yet

[tribal wyvern]

gaijin did fuck all for enlisted

it just feels like cuisine royale with no real improvement

gaijin kinda sucks

[rugged forge]

Shoulda just added infantry to warthunder

[tribal wyvern]

they ruined war thunder

they ruined cuisine royale

and enlisted sucks dick

lol

i'mma play bf1 cuz hell let loose is unplayable rn

[rugged forge]

Warthunder used to be my favorite game all the way up to the phantom in us

And Abrams

[arctic grove]

wtf even is that

[rugged forge]

Just can't anymore

It's a br game

[tribal wyvern]

was an april fools joke for enlisted that gaijin did

it was a br game in ww2 with kitchen tools as the theme

it ended up blowing up, they started charging for it and ended up revamping it as a sort of pubg rip off

it's called CRSD now

[rugged forge]

Crsd?

[tribal wyvern]

it was literally an april fools joke that made people think an enlisted build was playable

[arctic grove]

I remember now, saw some video of it

[tribal wyvern]

and they turned it into a fucking pubg rip off lmao

[arctic grove]

looked like nothing

[rugged forge]

It's too bad I really like the engine enlisted is on

[next onyx]

No OCE Servers : (

[arctic grove]

No nothing man

[next onyx]

I'd actually play that game if there were some

[rugged forge]

Wonder if 2042 will let us have custom servers again

[arctic grove]

Cant make infantry only game like that today, gotta have vehicles involved

[next onyx]

I just want my FG42 man

[arctic grove]

like that other game, u know

[timid merlin]

!when

[dusty spindle]

i want some kills man

[onyx turtle]

yeaaaaah

[arctic grove]

If you really itching to play something WW2 themed, go for Forgotten Hope 2

[onyx turtle]

bf4 forever

[split parcel]

Company of Heroes 3

[arctic grove]

Runs on potatoes, looks great, has vehicles

[rugged forge]

If your itching to hate humanity play rust.

[onyx turtle]

you can hate humanity without playing rust man

[rugged forge]

Lmao

[flat fern]

when does EA LIVE

[next onyx]

I'm not too concerned, A game is a game.

best bf4 assault rifle?

[rugged forge]

Hmm

[arctic grove]

Glock 18

[quick quest]

aek

[slim quiver]

I’ll play some random stuff in the meantime

[rugged forge]

I really like the an 94

[dusty spindle]

Famas is pretty shite for long distance

[rugged forge]

Bipod knife

[arctic grove]

Smaw or bipod knife cant rapid fire, won't do

[onyx turtle]

aek 971

[quick quest]

ycav drone

ucav

[rugged forge]

Clearly what your looking for is the t-90

[arctic grove]

yes, that's a good one

[quick quest]

viper

[rugged forge]

Lmao

[arctic grove]

stationary .50s are also good for assaulting infantry

[onyx turtle]

ye

[arctic grove]

you just cant move

[rugged forge]

C4 is the best weapon

[arctic grove]

so you'll have to assault from one spot

[serene sinew]

Hello

[rugged forge]

They can't kill you if you drop the whole building on them and yourself

[quick quest]

lol stationary MG you can seriously only see a 20 degree angle

[serene sinew]

So
Is it just me
Or is the booting out of multiplat thing confusing?

Like can you opt out of playing with pc or if you opt out you completely loose crossplat?

If its completely loosing it
Kinda dissapointed

[honest ingot]

hello

[arctic grove]

what

[serene sinew]

You're a bold one

[serene sinew]

They confirmed it being crossplatform
And they said you can turn it off
My question is
Is it fully turning it off
Or can you just turn it of for pc?

[rugged forge]

I mean tbh console vs PC isn't that bad if your decent with a controller I've played cod vs people on console with no aim asssist and kept up with people on PC you gotta be jacked up on caffeine but it can be done just not constantly

[serene sinew]

Nah my problem is cheating

[arctic grove]

Yes, you can completely turn off the crossplatform with PC on PC by turning the game off

[rugged forge]

AH

Cheating

Well

[arctic grove]

Hope that explains it

[serene sinew]

I don't know if they have better setups
I can improove

[serene sinew]

Ik it explains it
But my problem is cheating

[rugged forge]

PC players can typically engage multiple targets alot easier

[serene sinew]

Im not on pc tho

[arctic grove]

I know, I'm just fuckin with you

[serene sinew]

Yeh but console does have aim assist

[serene sinew]

F u n n i
Lol

[rugged forge]

You have to adjust your play style

[arctic grove]

bet you can disable PC servers on a console

[serene sinew]

Genius

[rugged forge]

Focus more on killing people before they see you. Don't engage head on as much

[serene sinew]

Yeh but what if I just search for a game?
And like not use the server browser

[arctic grove]

but you shouldn't do it because of cheaters, those you can avoid simply by switching servers, but because of keyboard and mouse players

[serene sinew]

I mean my only problem with pc is cheating
And I do want crossplay with xsx
But not with pc cause if cheating

[arctic grove]

you cant compete with those using joystick

[serene sinew]

Yeh ig that is true
We'll just have to wait and see

[serene sinew]

Eh
Ig
But there are lots of ass pc players

[rugged forge]

I'm excited for cross play personally

[serene sinew]

Same
I love crossplay

Most my friends on xbox

And its a win

[arctic grove]

Don't ever use "quick game", whatever it's called, in any game if it has server browser

[serene sinew]

But I've heard so much about cheating on warzone that Im worried about crossplay with pc

[arctic grove]

I'm going to enjoy grappling up to 60 fov console snipers and shotgunning them

[serene sinew]

Noted

[arctic grove]

will be funny

[rugged forge]

That's because warzone is the in thing rn

[arctic grove]

if it's automatic, there's a high chance that it's unreliable

[serene sinew]

Pc moment lmao

[quick quest]

as long as they stick with the game and update it, I will be happy. if they abandon it because it has too many bugs you will see my ass on bf4 till im 80 years old

[serene sinew]

Possibly

[serene sinew]

Lmao
What about bf7 when it comes out then?

[quick quest]

if they mess this one up. my hope for EA is over lol

[rugged forge]

Same

[quick quest]

plus bf7 will be in space most likely

[arctic grove]

When BFV was released, many people couldnt find any populated servers because they used automatic matchmaking

[rugged forge]

Or it'll be a 2142 prequel

Like just before

[serene sinew]

Dam

[rugged forge]

It's a dam shame about bfv

[serene sinew]

So far it seems dice hasnt fucked anything up

[arctic grove]

they always do

at some point

[quick quest]

idk squad so far is a good replacement for battlefield in my opinion

[serene sinew]

Yeh
But like
Things can change

[rugged forge]

To bad console people are left out on that one what a great game

[serene sinew]

There
Is
A
Game
Called
Squad?

[arctic grove]

Squad is hardly a milsim

[serene sinew]

Bruh what a name

[quick quest]

lol its not a milsim

[arctic grove]

Squad is a very forgiving mil sim

[rugged forge]

It's halfway between milsim and battlefield

[arctic grove]

^

[quick quest]

bf is def arcade tho

[arctic grove]

its an extremely casual "milsim"

Yeah, it's an arcade

you can revive people from headshots

[serene sinew]

What?
In what game?
Where?

[arctic grove]

Squad

[quick quest]

both games

[rugged forge]

.

[serene sinew]

Intresting

Dint have a pc so no words from me

[arctic grove]

It's really good, not as polished as BF graphically, but gameplay is fantastic

[meager comet]

Does anyone know when the open beta drops???

[serene sinew]

*dont

[rugged forge]

It evolved from a mod for battlefield 2

[meager comet]

Yes

[serene sinew]

It will prolly be like a month after the closed one for the early access on pre order?

[valid robin]

suos

[lost arrow]

So…starting cold war again to test the new update and let my ps4 fan die

[meager comet]

Thanks bruh

[serene sinew]

Wow nice

[valid robin]

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[serene sinew]

Oke
Np

[valid robin]

there is gonna be cringy thumbnails in battlefield now...

cuz cod players

[lost arrow]

I am wondering how well optimized bf2042 will be on old gen. Will they still become airplanes, what do you think? I mean bfv run fine on those consoles

[arctic grove]

what thumbnails?

[valid robin]

cringe bright thumbnails and also with faces

[arctic grove]

it's called Project Reality, if you're interested

[quick quest]

lol i wouldnt recommmend Project Reality. thats old af now

[serene sinew]

Thanks fam

[lost arrow]

Bfv doesnt let my console become really hot. Idk how this is possible when on cod my console is almost dying

Considering bf and xbox are partnered and ps and cod. And bf still runs better on ps4 then cod itself

[rugged forge]

Ps4 pro sounds like a f18 taking off

[quick quest]

hahahhahaa

i just choked

[arctic grove]

I would rather die than live life as an old gen console

[arctic grove]

If Squad looks like something you'd like to try, but your system is pretty slow, PR is where you go

[spark acorn]

COD is big and sorta still new, if you're talking about MW or BOCW.

[slim quiver]

Honestly the most impressive thing about the new consoles is they’re silent

You never notice the thing is even on

[spark acorn]

Yeah, PS4 and XB1 feels soo eeky now.

[arctic grove]

yeah wait 8 years

[rugged forge]

Probably gonna tear my pro down and re paste it add some thermal pads. Already did my PC last week why not.

[arctic grove]

that will change

[slim quiver]

Oh well yeah ofc

[quick quest]

my ps4 upgraded with a 1 TB was easily better than the pro. but now i have PC and its a gamechanger

[slim quiver]

But even when you first launched a pro, you could still hear it

[spark acorn]

What's your specs?

[lost arrow]

Yea but game size is similar to lates battlefield (if you compare with cold war). And visuals are way more enhanced in batlefield, you have more players and destructions and it still runs better and cooler then cod

[rugged forge]

The pro plus an ssd is very snappy fixed alot of the texture popping I had

[quick quest]

too lazy to give them to you lol. i just got this

and had it built for me

[spark acorn]

Well Battlefield V is pretty optimised compared to the newer CODs.

[slim quiver]

Oh you got a prebuilt?

[lost arrow]

I feel that xD i also dont buy any new games on the console cuz of the performance

They are outdated now

[spark acorn]

You still know the specs though?

[lost arrow]

Exactly. And i am wondering how cod can mess this up so hard.

[slim quiver]

Honestly prebuilts are nice if you get them for around 1500-2000 and then upgrade some of the parts yourself

[quick quest]

id have to look them up tbh XD

[arctic grove]

yeah that's exactly what I did

[slim quiver]

Yeah it’s not a bad idea

[arctic grove]

then I changed the fan curve because default sucked

[next onyx]

I gotta look about buying for a 1080 TI

[rugged forge]

I might grab an Xbox series s for giggles soon or maybe a switch

[spark acorn]

Can't you just check your 'task manager' for the specs?

[slim quiver]

Honestly the switch is in massive trouble

[lost arrow]

Where i live you get them for roughly 500€+.

[quick quest]

maybe idk XD

[arctic grove]

Damn, after spending that much I wouldn't want to put another dollar into a machine like that

[spark acorn]

Still a good GPU today, but that's gotten old.

[rugged forge]

Why?

[slim quiver]

The Steam Deck is literally going to obliterate the switch

[arctic grove]

yeah the steam one is about to murder switch

[next onyx]

I have two plans, One being buying a pc with the pieces without the GPU and then grabbing it later

[arctic grove]

no mercy

[quick quest]

2070 super

[lost arrow]

I mean the 1080ti still after many years overpriced but you have to say that it is still a very solid card

[next onyx]

I'm not gonna use it for serious gaming for the future

[rugged forge]

Oh yea was reading about that

[next onyx]

Like

[rugged forge]

Maybe I'll wait on it

[next onyx]

I'mma play my games

But i won't be maining on it

[spark acorn]

Eh, too bad Steam deck looks like it's only being released in the US.

[slim quiver]

Funny enough 2000 was ultimately the cost of my GPU alone

[arctic grove]

only 300 dollars for the steam portable and I can play any game in my steam library

[rugged forge]

Yikes

[fiery bobcat]

BRUH

[quick quest]

2070 super

[arctic grove]

lot better than seitch

[spark acorn]

Scalper price? @slim quiver

[next onyx]

I can get a 1080ti for 850 AUD

[slim quiver]

Only reserved in the US prob

[spark acorn]

Nice!

[slim quiver]

MSRP plus tax

[lost arrow]

What?…..

[spark acorn]

Yeah, so how can it ultimately smash the Switch?

[slim quiver]

The FTW3 3090 MSRP is like 1800

[arctic grove]

Horrifying. I am so happy I built mine this December, right before all the prices went to shitter

[slim quiver]

1800 plus tax gets it close to 2000

[rugged forge]

Imagine if Microsoft let you run a full windows os on the xbox series s or x those systems are great value performance wise if you could get then at msrp

[quick quest]

definitely spent too much money lol. had mine built on nzxt.com

[slim quiver]

Lmaoo nah

[next onyx]

It's either that or to buy a pc with a 2060

[spark acorn]

How much?

[lost arrow]

I think i was lucky with my pc build. Payed 100 over the original price for the gpu but could save 80 again on other parts.

[slim quiver]

The size of a 3090 is actually the same size as a 1080ti just wider

[arctic grove]

because it's a way better value

and if it releases in other places it will murder switch

[quick quest]

around 1400, but I also bought a 2tb SSD

[spark acorn]

Of course, but that's the thing. It's only being released in the US, or reserved there.

[next onyx]

Zy has opened my eyes to the 1080

[slim quiver]

Hahaha nah

[spark acorn]

Oh not bad.

[arctic grove]

okay yeah but that could change

[opal compass]

i paid 899€ for my ftw3 ultimate 3080

[slim quiver]

The 1080-1080ti are just amazing cards

[arctic grove]

Games, dude, a shit ton of games

[next onyx]

Yeah haha

[slim quiver]

The ti version still has some years left

[spark acorn]

Yes because it's a portable PC.

[arctic grove]

Exactly

[arctic grove]

yeah honestly I enjoyed them more than my 2080ti, they just felt more solid

[slim quiver]

In like 2-3 years it will be pretty dated but for right now it’s amazing

[spark acorn]

So your point is?

[slim quiver]

Exactly

[lost arrow]

Thats a good deal for these days

[slim quiver]

It’s a hell of a card

[arctic grove]

That's how Deck is gonna smash Switch, it's library

[opal compass]

i got my card 8 months ago

[arctic grove]

and its only 300 bucks

that too

[rugged forge]

The only reason I don't see the steam deck doing well is the fact that alot of the people who got the switch were ether Nintendo fans or just really like the concept. I feel like something made by valve won't appeal to a wide audience we like it but we're also in the PC crowd.

[slim quiver]

I sold my old computer for about 1500 which was nice

[spark acorn]

Sure, games of course. But it's release other than the US for sales?

[slim quiver]

It offset a lot of the cost for my new comp

[arctic grove]

bf2042 steam deck gaming

[slim quiver]

Definitely sell it sooner rather than later. It’s a GPU drought rn

[lost arrow]

Yea thats a good deal then.

[arctic grove]

yeah he could sell that shit for a lot more rn

[arctic grove]

Where have you heard that?

[celest elbow]

yeah bro im really thinkin about coppin one casue titanfall and bf2042

also if dayz is on i im copping 100%

[arctic grove]

dayz

lol

It's US and Europe, if not worldwide

yeah

[celest elbow]

dayz goated

[slim quiver]

Building a comp rn isnt as expensive if you get a GPU at MSRP

[arctic grove]

true, but now that covid is ending prices are going down

[slim quiver]

I could have easily made like a high end 3K build if I had got the 3080 at MSRP instead of a MSRP 3090

The 3090 is what really dented my pc costs

[spark acorn]

I don't remember but I thought it was being released in the US first and than worldwide later. Which I thought US was gonna only have it for a while before the world gets it.

[spark acorn]

So was it worth it?

[slim quiver]

Absolutely

[spark acorn]

Because a 3090 for 2k isn't.

Alrighty then.

[arctic grove]

I mean, Nintendo does the same shit all the time except for Japan

[slim quiver]

Well I got the 3090 for MSRP

[spark acorn]

That's where they manufactured it.

[arctic grove]

Don't know about that, but the world will eventually get it, sooner than later

[spark acorn]

Obviously.

[slim quiver]

1880 is a FTW3 cost

I got mine for actually cheaper than MSRP

[spark acorn]

It say's for an FE being at $1,499?

[slim quiver]

since it was out of a microcenter

[arctic grove]

okay but they exclusively produce some products and consoles only in Japan lol

[spark acorn]

on Google.

[slim quiver]

That’s a founders

That’s not a EVGA FTW3

[spark acorn]

Ah, yours is an EVGA FTW3?

[slim quiver]

Yea

[spark acorn]

I see.

Correct.

[arctic grove]

I feel like prices have been so ridiculous for so long now I’ve totally forgotten what a normal pc costs. Like a 3090 at msrp alone costs what a good pc used to cost in its entirety

[spark acorn]

And their coolers r sorta shit, i'm pretty sure.

[slim quiver]

Which one

Because the FTW3 has 3 fans

[spark acorn]

FE is what I am talking about.

[arctic grove]

1080ti used to glow green, my 2080ti doesn't

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah because of the plate

[spark acorn]

And having 3 or 2 fans is fine.

[arctic grove]

buy an amd gpu and speed run the overheating process

like a boss

[slim quiver]

Honestly I like the M.2’s more than my GPU

Everything just goes lightning fast

[arctic grove]

What is your GPU?

[slim quiver]

3090 FTW3

[arctic grove]

yo I do wish nvidia would stop fucking up driver updates

kinda annoying

[slim quiver]

With mountain internet downloading is just an easy breeze

[arctic grove]

Woah

I am using 5700 XT

[slim quiver]

Good card

[spark acorn]

Still a good card u'know?

[spark acorn]

yeah legit 2 many to download

[slim quiver]

What’s funny tho is the AMD cards are more expensive than nvidia cards in stores

[arctic grove]

Yeah plays my games at 1080p 100+ FPS

Depends on the games ofc lol

[slim quiver]

I just wanted to finally build a system I could run 4K on

[arctic grove]

Yeah

metro exodus enhanced: runs at 13 fps highest settings. reinstalls fresh driver update and it runs at 145

[spark acorn]

and dont have cool features like DLSS compared to RTX cards.

[slim quiver]

Oh yeah

[spark acorn]

FSR, yes but I dont think its good as DLSS 2.0.

[arctic grove]

Yeah, I was planning on buying a 3070, but ya know…

[slim quiver]

DLSS 2.0 is crazy

[arctic grove]

Out of stock

[arctic grove]

yeah but in most cases 1080p looks shitty with it

[arctic grove]

I want to see FSR in BF2042

If I found it I would have snatched it right away

it's a scaling method

[spark acorn]

no

[arctic grove]

so no

I hate hdr

I want to upgrade to 1440p 144Hz

HDR in most games ruins the image completely

[slim quiver]

1440p is awesome

[arctic grove]

Yeah I heard, too bad I can’t play at it, well, at 144Hz

I have a 4K tv to use my pc on too, my pc can do 4K sometimes, but not always at a straight 60 FPS

[slim quiver]

I wonder if 2042 specs will really be something higher than expected

[arctic grove]

Yeah same

[spark acorn]

What GPU is this?

[arctic grove]

I just hope it’s really well optimized

[arctic grove]

5700 XT

well in most games it's implemented very poorly and usually is a very niche feature

I also tried gta v with reshade packs and other ultra graphics packs, ran 30 FPS mostly

And 40 FPS

[spark acorn]

That card isn't meant to be played on 4k most of the time.

[arctic grove]

At 4K

[latent locust]

well cross play was confirmed

[arctic grove]

gta v graphics mods "MORE RAIN PUDDLES = 4K"

[arctic grove]

Yeah I know, just thought I would try it out

[spark acorn]

And cross-progression too.

So if you had stuff on PS4,

[arctic grove]

Ah yes, those water on the streets

[latent locust]

cross progression is really good

[spark acorn]

You can then transfer ur stuff on PS5.

[slim quiver]

Crossplay was good being announced

[latent locust]

i dont have a ps5 sadly would like one but none are been sold from game stores

[alpine gate]

you could do that even if there wasnt crossprogression, crossprogression works mainly for PC -> Console

or console -> pc

[spark acorn]

???

[latent locust]

most ps5,s are been pre purchesed by scamer bots

[slim quiver]

Honestly the Ps5 is kind of weird

[spark acorn]

How so?

[alpine gate]

there's a feature on ps5 that lets you transfer your ps4 data on ps5

[spark acorn]

Of course.

[alpine gate]

you can do it in the settings

[spark acorn]

It was a feature that was obviously going to happen because most people have their stuff on PS4 and now transfered it to their next gen console.

[latent locust]

cant wait to get beta access to battlefield 2042

[alpine gate]

yea

[slim quiver]

Im not sure how the Ps5 sells. The last time I played mine was November 2020. And then when nioh 2 update launched

Sony does not support that console very well

[arctic grove]

I kinda want a ps5

[spark acorn]

Crazy how it already passed the amount of sales that the PS4 sold.

[slim quiver]

They could have done multiple backwards compatibility upgrades

[spark acorn]

And yet 'OUT OF STOCK'.

[slim quiver]

Exactly

[latent locust]

i want a ps5 for games like returnal and demon souls

[slim quiver]

Like Xbox actually upgrades their previous games

[alpine gate]

not really scammer bots, more like companies that mass buy them and re-sell them at an insane price like 800€+

[slim quiver]

Demon souls was good

[spark acorn]

Yes, they use bots like scammer bots to get them for their company.

[slim quiver]

I got my Ps5 out of a Best Buy drop

[alpine gate]

yep

[slim quiver]

I had to go in store to pick it up

Thats The only method these stores should use tbh

Tô stop bots

[alpine gate]

demon souls is godly, finished my first game not too long ago

loved it

[slim quiver]

It was really good tbh

[alpine gate]

yeah

i love the riposte animations

[spark acorn]

PS5 exclusives are great and all.

[arctic grove]

Demons souls was awesome and I loved it. Was interesting to see how the Soulsborne stuff started

[spark acorn]

But PC is eventually going to get them 🙂

[latent locust]

yeah i wish for pre ordering consoles you had to be in store and purchase it and not let it be purchesed online

[alpine gate]

def

[arctic grove]

Doesn't it feel too smooth? To me it looked like the animations were lacking some roughness to them, some life, they felt sterile

[arctic grove]

no they aren't, exclusives are a cancer of the industry

[spark acorn]

what?

[alpine gate]

i liked them

they felt very well done to me

[slim quiver]

I guess? I felt the animations were really well done
